Episode 68 - Pride Month

The VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System is committed to creating a welcoming environment and improving healthcare for everyone, including Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ+) Veterans.  Part of that welcoming environment is recognizing June as Pride Month, where we celebrate the members of our LGBTQ+ Veteran community and help inspire, educate, and inform Veterans about how we provide an affirming and respectful environment where Veterans can feel comfortable being their true selves.

 

On this episode of The 9 Line, we talk to Sora Lee, our LGBTQ+ Special Emphasis Program Manager, and Tresa Hanshew, LGBTQ+  Patient Care Coordinator about how we'll be recognizing Pride Month, how care for our LGBTQ+ Veterans has evolved over the years, and more.
